From the Amazon.com and Wall Street Journal #1 bestselling authors of the Zodiac Academy series Caroline Peckham & Susanne Valenti.
The sky is burning.
The Reapers are keeping secrets. Vampires roam the wastes.
And I'm headed down a path of destruction which can only end in death.
I'm a soul cast adrift on a tide of grief and lies. A clock ticking down the moments to my inevitable destruction, and all I can do is race towards it.
The nations are caught in this endless battle for supremacy and it's hard to see myself as anything other than a pawn in the twisted games I'm helpless to control.
The Waning Lands are screaming, soaked in blood for so long that even the rivers run red with it. But those screams are whispering riddles that only some of us can hear, begging us to see the signs and listen to the meaning beneath the words we chant so obediently.
What if there is something more to this war? What if winning isn't what actually matters? What if our magic isn't the thing that truly divides us?
My heart is hardened to the wants of the world and all who occupy it, yet still I hear them call my name. Perhaps it's time I started listening and found out why the stars have set us this fate. Or if not the stars, then who?
Something is rotting at the heart of our lands. So now I have a choice to make. Will I seek out the decay and work to destroy it? Or will I join it in its destruction of this world in vengeance for all the suffering it has offered me?
I'm starting to want things I shouldn't want. Desire a man I should hate. Care for a warrior I should only wish to harm. The point is, I'm beginning to feel like more than just another pawn in this endless game. But if I want to be the one who rolls the dice then I'm going to have to pay the price of playing for real.
I only wanted to claim revenge for what I'd lost.
Maybe Destiny isn't done with me yet.

While the first book was a little slow (but so worth it), this book is a much faster pace with so much character representation, lore, and battles. Vesper is everything.
This book was a god tier book for me. Easy 6 stars. Have you ever read a book where the characters are so real and so beloved that you cry when the book is over? Welp, here I am, crying. I’m actually bonded to these people. Kaiser, Everest, Vesper, Bastian. Even Harlon and Galomp have my heart. I love this world and the story so much. It has everything you could ever want. Yearning, tension, enemies to lovers, action, trials, betrayal, friendship, magic and really just a good darn time. You must read this series. I’ll be waiting with baited breath for the next one.
The way these authors have written such a an intricate book is amazing. We follow two main female chacters and there journey most of the time and it's gripping.I also loved reading from the point of view of the 2 main male characters there is so many side characters who also feature you cannot tell who is going to make it.
The thing about these authors is I feel like they fluff up and drag out things towards the end to keep the series going. They seem to do it in all their books and it’s annoying . I truly didn’t like this end. The characters choices sucked and it dragged on. I’m not so sure I enjoyed hearing from other characters either.Especially Kaisers voice didn’t seem to fit really for some reason. I really really really really hope this series is just a trilogy. I’ve read other series from these authors and I end up giving up because each book follows the same pattern with no end. The only series I finished was the zodiac one and likely because it was complete. I don’t know if I can stick with a series like this if it continues past 3 and I have to wait for each book.
These freaking sisters have me in an emotional chokehold. Who hurt them??? Why do they do this to us??? These characters are sooooo close to seeing the light, and are just too wrapped up in their pain and their pasts. 10/10 recommend this book, but holy crap, do yourself a favor and WAIT to read it because the way it leaves off has you feeling utter grief and betrayal and the next book doesn’t come out until February 😭
